While walking the very muddy corn field today here in south eastern Ohio I came this Spanish from 1800! Now to try and find out how it got there!

Very cool find. Spanish Colonial 1 Real of Carlos IV, minted in Mexico City.I keep six honest serving-men (they taught me all I knew); Their names are What and Why and When and How and Where and Who.Comment

After that last rain.... muddy for sure. Incredible find !! I think it's the leprechauns and wood sprites leaving stuff just to mess with our heads.

Foreign coinage was used in the U.S. until a law was passed in 1858 I believe. The spanish reale was the coin of choice most often. Awesome find!"The education of a man is never completed until he dies." Robert E. LeeComment
